Scouting Report
Body: Athletic 6'0" 175 lbs. frame with plenty of room to add strength. Tons of "twitch" in his movements.
Hit: Starts in a squared off, balanced, and athletic stance with hands held just above shoulder height. Uses a modified leg kick to get back to center. Does a good job of controlling his body through his load and stride and maintains balance throughout the swing. Aggressively fires his back hip to deliver a heavy barrel straight to the ball with slightly uphill extension. Present pull side power with a max exit velocity of 91 mph.
Defense (OF): Good first step, feet and body are in sync as he plays through the baseball, catching it cleanly out front.
Defense (C): Steady receiver, average blocker. Quick transfer with athletic footwork. Pop times of 1.83-1.94
Arm (OF): High 3/4 to near over the top release. Short and quick. 88 mph positional velocity.
Arm (C): Short and quick arm action. 3/4 release. 79 mph positional velocity.
Run: 7.01 in the 60.
